Special Agent Antonio Burns has come to Colorado for a family reunion of sorts. He and his father plan to confront Antonio’s brother, Roberto, whose life is teetering on the wrong side of the law.

After a long break in this series (read two of the previously) I picked up this one that had long sat on my shelf and realized how much I really liked this series. I will now need to find the others in the series. As a rock climber I, of course, am drawn to the climbing scenes, but my favorite genre are mystery/thrillers so this book is just up my alley.

The relationship of the Burns brothers is a good play off of one another. McKinzie's characters are perfect and beautiful but damaged both physically and mentally. This plot is fast-paced and full of adventure.

Entertaining arm-chair thrill ride for sure. ( )

Very fun read. Really well developed characters. I will absolutely continue reading the rest of the series. ( )

Our hero says "Climbing has always been the Burns family's first drug of choice. "La Llamada del salvaje", as my mother describes it. The call of the wild."... For me on a personal level the wild places have always tugged at me too... you can look at me and see sunken eyes if I have been away too long... anyway a great story that gives you some of the background of the characters and shows some of the conflicted love that can take place between fathers and sons and brothers to brothers. So you have some murder ... some extreme climbing...environmentalists... twists and turns and just a pretty gosh darn good read… ( )
